In some ways I like I'm always really cautious because I think dividing up the household chores is still you know like kind of the bare minimum but in a lot of ways what it does is it offers that person who might be struggling an opportunity to step up. Why are we putting judgment on things like sitting down and divvying up the chores when that is ultimately going to lead to a healthier relationship? It's not silly if it makes your life easier it's not invalid, she says.
In this episode, Hannah is joined by Cate Osborn, who is a certified sex educator with ADHD, a mental health advocate and full-time content creator. Cate joins Hannah to talk about how typical understanding of ADHD has let down women and minority genders, having ADHD and dating, and how ADHD and kink can intersect. Cate unpacks rejection sensitivity and time blindness, discusses the relationship between ADHD and consent, and shares her opinion on why kink is a great tool for managing stimulation. Finally, Hannah and Cate discuss relationship dynamics where one person has ADHD and the other(s) doesn’t, the moral obligation to treat people with compassion, and how communication is crucial in all relationships.
